back at home, version 2 informs me that according to a Dr Who facebook posting, someone is getting a new TARDIS interior for Chirstmas this year. Perhaps this ties in with that quick flash of a blank Rolls Royce manufacturer's plate inside the TARDIS during an earlier episode (Angels Take Manhattan?) this year.

I must have been in another world last season. Version 2 and I watched Black Spot last night and it was the first time I'd seen it. Where the heck was I? Tonight - the Doctor's Wife - and I can't say for sure I've seen that either.

Then again I'll probably get 20 minutes into it and go "oh yeah..."

This coming from a man who once sat in a movie theater for 75 minutes before realizing I had seen the film before.

some great one-liners though

I think the appeal to me is that it looks very "future". It also looks a bit colder and less "organic/warm" if that makes sense. Which seems appropriate to me given where the doctor was mentally at the start of the episode.

It is fun! We started the kids on Sarah Jane Adventures a couple years ago. We grabbed them from the local rental shop (which has amazing selection). Not sure about online, definitely not Hulu, but probably Amazon. We need to watch the last season still, but haven't had the heart since the actress died right after it wrapped.

Most blu-rays come with audio description! When my low vision bff comes over and watches a movie with my husband and I (and my husband needs subtitles) well you get a whole new appreciation for the movie!

I'm prepping for the new season by indulging in "The Doctors Revisited" series. I tuned in about a half hour into the first one Sunday night (appropriately enough titled "First Doctor") which led seamlessly into the original Doc in "The Aztecs". Unfortunately it ran till midnight and I had to bail out early.

So - late tuning in, early tuning out...definitely have it set on the DVR for a full watching.

What I did see of "The Aztecs" was actually far better than I expected. By today's standards it is a bit stale in casting and acting styles, but it was the way it was done back in the day.

Also, I am less than impressed with amazon's HD streaming of Season 5. At least on our connection it has to pause to buffer a lot and the HD is a lot more pixelated than I expected. Perhaps I should try the rather ugly non HD again. Plus no subtitles on this season yet (oh well).

It's almost enough to just make me order the season on blu-ray (which is $20 cheaper than DVD for some reason).
